Learn what catches the eye of an agent or editor - whether it's fiction or nonfiction - and how to make your project stand out from the crowd.


Description

Why do some projects get picked out of the pile by agents and editors while most do not? It's because great books that catch the eyes of the pros are a combination of an excellent idea, excellent writing, and, in some cases, an excellent platform.

In this webinar, we discuss, in detail, the three-tiered approach that all publishers look at in evaluating potential books: the idea, the writing, and the platform. Writers will learn exactly what these terms mean, and the relative importance of each tier for different types of books. We discuss ways to evaluate your own project based on this structure, and how to improve whatever areas need help.

What you'll learn:
  • How to capture your book in a compelling hook that will draw the attention of agents and editors.
  • How to determine if your rejections are less about your project and more about the marketplace.
  • What is meant by the "competitive advantage" and how to know if you have it.
  • How to make your writing shine,taking an idea and fleshing it out with voice, narrative, point-of-view, and structure.
  • How to develop an attractive writer platform,connecting with other writers and individuals while making yourself a visible authority on a subject.
  • How agents and editors quickly look over a project and decide if it has the necessary elements to make them request more.
  • How to get your book published!


Speaker
Rachelle Gardner is an agent with WordServe Literary Group, representing both fiction and nonfiction. She has been in the publishing business for fifteen years, with experience in marketing, sales, international rights, acquisitions and editorial. Rachelle is looking to represent authors with long-term publishing potential. She's looking at all genres of adult fiction except fantasy, sci-fi, and erotica, and prefers stories with strong characters and page-turning plots. Currently her favorite genres are contemporary women's fiction, historical romance, and romantic suspense. In non-fiction, she's looking for authors with strong messages (for either a Christian audience or the general market) and significant marketing platforms.

Who should attend?
  • Fiction writers who are writing a book or have a completed project.
  • Nonfiction writers developing a book proposal or project.
  • Writers who have been rejected and are looking to evaluate and possibly refine their work to make a project more attractive.
Please note that Rachelle does not accept nor specialize in children's or middle grade literature, and she is only considering limited YA. So while she will likely pass along good advice that can translate to children's and YA, she will not address those genres specifically in this webinar.

This is one “under the radar” gem!!
Size: Large, Color: Coral
This is one “under the radar” gem!! Very strong internal squeaker and way tougher than it looks. My big 125lb Shepard-Husky mix gave it heck, then made it his new buddy. He’ll occasionally give it the business but on the whole, it’s surprisingly tough and my big boy loves it. Nice price!!

Cute but small
Size: Large, Color: Skinny Green
Cute stuffy and has not yet ripped. While my dogs plays with it, the toy is a bit small for him. For reference he is 120lbs.

Mini sticks for all the good boys!
My boys LOVE these benebones ! Not to mentioned they are adorable having a mini stick in their mouths. The vet noted my lab needed to start chewing on bones again due to build up & I refused to give them anything other than benebones. They have held up very well & are used daily. The size is plenty big for my 80lb lab and 60lb Australian shepherd. The overall dollar value is great as these are lasting longer than the fish one they normally destroy in a week or two. Overall entertaining for not only my dogs but for my husband and I. Will be buying more in the future.

Long-lasting
Our Labradors (6 month old puppy and almost 3 year old) love to chew on this; they even chew on it at the same time, one on each end of it! These Power Bones last them so long, too. They had the mermaid one for months before I finally tossed it because it was down to a small piece. We've had the hockey stick for over 2 months now and it's only chewed at the ends so far, so I expect it to last quite a while!
